I  WILL  BE  WITH  YOU  ALWAYS - YOU  MUST  BELIEVE,
YOU  HAVE  NO  CHOICE  AS  I  LISTEN  TO  YOU  GRIEVE,
THE  ROSE  PETALS  HAVE  BEEN  WASHED UPON  THE  GROUND,
YOU  WILL  NOT  HEAR  ME  MAKE  ANY  FURTHER  SOUND;
THIS  IS  NOT  MAUDLIN - A PREOCCUPATION WITH  DEATH,
THE  PRAYERS  HAVE  BEEN  READ, EVERYTHING HAS BEEN SAID,
YOU HAVE GIVEN ME GREAT LOVE, ALL I EVER WANTED;
WHEN YOU FEEL  SOMETHING BRUSH AGAINST YOU - IT WILL BE ME,
JUST RAISE A HAND AND SQUEEZE THE ZEPHYR BREEZE GENTLY,
I WILL DANCE AROUND YOU AND SLOWLY RUFFLE YOUR HAIR,
YOU CAN'T SEE ME BECAUSE I SHALL NO LONGER BE THERE;
WHEN YOUR LIPS BECOME DRY, YOU WILL KNOW THAT I HAVE GONE AWAY,
DO NOT WORRY, LAUGH A LITTLE, BECAUSE I WILL RETURN ANOTHER DAY.
